County Prosecutor David Fornshell said 2-month-old Cayden Colwell suffered blunt force injury to the head and Colwell's 3-year-old son had multiple bruises on his body, the Hamilton-Middletown Journal-News reported.

Authorities responding to a 911 call April 11 found Cayden unresponsive at a Clearcreek Township home. Township police say the infant was hospitalized and died April 16 after being taken off life support.

Court files don't show an attorney for Colwell, who police have said is in custody.
